Turkey Sweet Potato Chili

sweet potato (peeled & diced)

garlic (minced)

paprika

cayenne pepper (optional)

(28 fluid ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes (with juices)

(14 fluid ounce) can red kidney beans (drained)

Salt & pepper (to taste)

Cheddar cheese (grated,

Cilantro (chopped)

Avocado (diced)

Sour cream or Greek yogurt (to taste)

Prep your sweet potato and onion.

Add the oil to a large soup pot and sauté the onion over medium-high heat for 5 minutes.

Add the garlic and turkey to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until the turkey turns white on the outside.

Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Give it a good stir.

Add the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, kidney beans, and sweet potatoes.

Increase the heat and bring the chili to a boil. Once it's bubbling, reduce the heat to medium and cover the pot with the lid slightly ajar. Let it cook for 15-25 minutes or until the sweet potatoes have softened (depends how big you cut the pieces). I like to give it an occasional stir.&nbsp;

Season with extra salt &amp; pepper if needed and garnish with desired toppings.

The BEST turkey chili! A thick, rich healthy turkey chili with just the right amount of spice. Award winning recipe that will be your new favorite!

onions

bell peppers (any color, cored and chopped)

carrots

celery (diced)

potato

turkey (I used 93% lean)

water (more as needed)

tomato sauce ((15 ounces))

tomatoes

red pepper flakes

avocado

jalapeño

Shredded cheese

Plain non-fat Greek yogurt (or sour cream)

chopped cilantro

Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or large soup pot over medium heat. Add the garlic, onions, bell peppers, carrots, celery, and sweet potato. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes, until soft.

Add the turkey and cook until browned, 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often to break up the chunks.

Once the meat is browned, add 1 1/2 cups water, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes in their juices, chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a moderate bubble. Let cook, uncovered, until the chili thickens, about 45 minutes, stirring every so often so that the chili does not stick to the bottom. If the chili becomes too thick, add a little water to reach your desired consistency.

Toward the end of the cooking time, taste and adjust the seasonings as desired. Add more cayenne pepper for an extra kick and more salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot with desired toppings.

The Best Turkey Chili Recipe (Stove Top, Slow Cooker or Instant Pot)

brown sugar

chili powder (use 1 tablespoon for less spice)

chicken broth (or

kidney beans (rinsed and drained)

can black beans

can pinto beans (rinsed and drained)

For topping: shredded cheese, sour cream

Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook 2 minutes, until onion starts to soften. Add the ground turkey and cook, stirring to crumble the meat, until turkey is browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds.

Add the brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper and tomato paste. Stir to combine. Add the broth and stir, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pot.

Stir in the crushed tomatoes and beans.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 hours, stirring occasionally. Cover the chili during the first part of the cook time, and then uncover during the last 30 minutes to thicken.

Serve chili with toppings, as desired.

To Make on the Stove Top:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook 2 minutes, until onion starts to soften. Add the ground turkey and cook, stirring to crumble the meat, until turkey is browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds.

Turn off the heat and add the brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper and tomato paste. Stir to combine. Add the broth and stir, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pot. Transfer the mixture into your slow cooker insert.

Add the crushed tomatoes and then beans to the slow cooker and stir.

Cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours.

Stir and serve chili with toppings, as desired.

To Make in the Slow Cooker:

Turn Instant Pot on sauté setting. Add the olive oil and onion and cook 2 minutes, until onion starts to soften. Add the ground turkey and cook, stirring to crumble the meat, until turkey is browned, about 5 minutes. Turn off the Instant Pot and stir in the garlic.

Add the brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper and tomato paste. Stir to combine. Add the broth and stir well, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pot.

Add the crushed tomatoes and then beans on top of the meat mixture and DO NOT stir in.

Close the Instant Pot lid and move the valve to the sealing position. Pressure cook on high pressure for 12 minutes.

Allow the Instant Pot to naturally release for 10 minutes (by leaving it off after it finishes cooking). Then, carefully do a quick pressure release (use a potholder or long spoon to carefully move the steam release valve to venting) to release the remaining steam and pressure. Once the float valve drops down, carefully open the Instant Pot lid away from you, as the steam will be hot.

If the chili is not thick enough, simmer it using the sauté function to thicken it up. Stir and serve chili with toppings, as desired.
